For his performance in Borat 2

Never forget

At least we'll get to create a really funny and sad cut of that scene followed by Trump giving him the medal

Real great way to underscore how pro-pedo this administration is

[–] Etterra@discuss.online 7 points 1 day ago (1 children)

So Trump's not going to pay him or bail him out, but he is going to give him a consolation prize lol

[–] Nasan@sopuli.xyz 2 points 1 day ago

It's kind of fitting given the context. Giuliani's freedom for his own. Not that either of them deserve to be anywhere but behind bars.

Wow, how is this walking corpse still vertical?

Last I saw of him was in Sasha baron Cohen's "This is America", and even then he looked like the protagonist in a parody called "weekend at Rudi's"

Is it for the Four Seasons fiasco? The zipper at the hotel incident? Or the Nosferatu black ink sideburns?

[–] teft@piefed.social 5 points 1 day ago

That wasn’t a nosferatu cosplay that was a Jean-Baptiste Emanuel Zorg cosplay.

The Medal of Freedom to Scam People. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION THIS MATTER.

[–] devolution@lemmy.world 17 points 2 days ago (1 children)

I remember a time when that award meant something. Now it's like a participation trophy for the country's worst people.

[–] MagicShel@lemmy.zip 5 points 2 days ago

We can make all new medals now that these have been sullied.

[–] civilfolly@lemmy.world 13 points 2 days ago (1 children)

How much would a medal of freedom fetch on the open market? Asking for a friend.

[–] theuniqueone@lemmy.dbzer0.com 8 points 2 days ago

Rudy? I didn't know you were on Lemmy?

[–] Ebby@lemmy.ssba.com 10 points 2 days ago

Something he can sell to pay off his debts. Then we can go on forgetting about him and his bullshit again.

[–] bdot@lemmy.world 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Repulsive little drunkard.

[–] thefluffiest@feddit.nl 4 points 1 day ago

I hope Rudy has a nice wall to hang it on, under whatever bridge he’s currently living

[–] MyOpinion@lemmy.today 3 points 2 days ago (1 children)

As long as it is shaped like a giant turd I am ok with that.

[–] P00ptart@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago
